Under the covers...

Yesterday was pretty cold -- in the single digits F -- and last night the weatherman said we might get some snow. So this morning I got up with one decision to be made right away. Should Coral go to her day program or not? First I checked the outdoor thermometer... Brrrr... 4 degrees F. (minus 15 C.) I took a squint out the kitchen window and saw that quite a brisk wind was moving the evergreens. Nope. This is the whole reason why I work from home. No more sending Coral out in terrible weather. No more worrying about how to call work and say I can't come. No more stress about doing the right thing. (And, of course, wearing flannel jammies and sipping hot tea while I type!) Then it began to snow, and I could not even see the house across the field. Confirmation of my good judgment, I told myself! And Coral snoozed until late in the morning, nice and warm under the covers!

Someone else had the right idea this morning about where to stay warm...Trent took this picture and sent it to me.
He got out of bed, and when he came back, there was Tux who had made himself all cozy!

I'm still here...

I woke up early this morning and just could not get back to sleep, so I got up to take care of a few little loose ends that needed attention. Now in a few minutes I will get Coral up for the day, and then it will be time for work.

So before I jump into the day with both feet, here is a quick post to say I hope to soon be back to having time to blog again. Thanks for your comments and for missing me! I have not been able to visit your blogs much or leave comments. This past month has been really difficult for Coral which just automatically means difficult for me. Now I have this sinus/bronchial thing going on...

But I shall be back soon, I hope! In the meantime, I'm wishing for each of you peace in the New Year.
